    Another quality build! Elemental Resistance is a neat little idea and I'm happy to see you took it in that direction. +1

    I was just wondering whether this would be possible without Enchanting? Here's what I was thinking:

    Otar + Stage 4 Vampirism = 80% Frost

    Otar + Dunmer + Daedric Boots of the Firewalker - Stage 4 Vampirism = 85% Fire

    Otar + Necklace of Grounding = 85% Shock

    Lord Stone + Magic Resistance 3/3 + Agent of Mara + Daedric Shield of Nullification = 85% Magic

    Certainly possible! Only disadvantage is that 80% Frost, but that could be rectified easily by replacing the Daedric Shield of Nullification with a Daedric Shield of Warmth and utilising the Vampire's Well Rested and Azura's Blessing. The above is just easier because of not needing to pick up the bonuses every eight hours. Atronach Forge would be required for the Boots and Shield, and luck for the Necklace.

    Alternatively, Necromage could make things a lot easier. But exploit free is best.

    Anyway, great idea, well presented and simple. Once again, easy +1 Albino. How many builds you got nw, thirty or so? I reckon you need a badge for "Member with most time on his hands"

    Yeah, that certainly seems possible; and since Enchanting's out of the mix, it would be easy enough to add Conjuration. I'm up to 33 posted builds, actually, and yes, I do need that badge.

    Wait, what, this still has only 29 likes, what. I can't understand this site. I can't technically like it but I can bump it. No I wont do that, I'll be nice and ask a question. Did you find the Staff of Magnus useful, ive been using it and I never manage to get the Health Absorb to activate, I don't know how much Magicka Dragon Priests can have but surely none of them can take a full charge and still have enough to blast three Lightning Bolts and summon a Storm Atronach. 

    There its an actual question not just me bumping it.

    Wellllllll... you could always make it a future Hidden Gem Spotlight. Vampires are part of the current theme after all. :P

    I did find the Staff of Magnus useful, but I was only using it for the Absorb Magicka effect.

    Fair enough on the Staff of Magnus, that is a very powerful effect. I can't tell you if it's being considered for HGS, you'll have to wait and see :)

    This would make a great villian NPC... can i use it as such?
